A shame, crying — you have to start all over. In a few months the game is boring, and some cubes will get lost” Purchase three or four dozen bulbs for flashlight, please take a few evenings and you will be able to make the child a game which is performing the functions of the cubes, significantly than entertaining and will be useful to him.
SVATONOVICE — so you can call this toy consist of scoreboard and console, mounted in the same enclosure. The scoreboard is a screen of frosted glass, behind which square cells are bulbs designed for safe voltage (not more than 6.3).
Next to the scoreboard controller switches, which you can use to light a certain lamp or several, in the right combination, making any figure: house, car, letter.
Structurally, the Board consists of a grid, sawn from plywood or aluminum, with holes for lamps and front wall-screen of frosted glass (preferably organic).

Into the holes are screwed the screws M6, which serve as switches. Pre-cut the screws head and that part of the screw is tightened the cut rubber tube on glue or screwed plastic cap from any tube. You can certainly use ready-made toggle switches or buttons, but since the switches will need a lot (30 — 40), the toy will be more expensive.
Under the panel is a printed circuit Board from foil Micarta with conductors contacts for screw propeller — the “tumbler”. The structure of such switches, although simplified, however, as practice has shown, quite convenient and reliable.
